The Anthropology Graduate Program is closely linked with the Trent University Archaeological Research Centre (TUARC).  Based in the historic log cabin buildings, this research and educational centre is a lively hub for all things archaeological at Trent.

TUARC was established in 2001 with the following objectives:

• Facilitate the conduct of professional, high calibre archaeological research;
• Promote interdisciplinary archaeological research at Trent University, and link this with related research elsewhere;
• Foster international linkages between Trent faculty and students and archaeologists outside Canada;
• Encourage the study of archaeology by Trent University graduate and undergraduate students;
• Educate the public to instill a better understanding and appreciation of archaeology and cultural heritage.
